Dear Misty Creek Faithful,In this week's sermon "Finish The Race", I will elaborate on Apostle Paul's parting words to Timothy, specifically focusing on three aspects: the importance of proclaiming the Word, the manner in which to do so and the motivations behind it. I will emphasize the vital role every believer has in sharing their faith, warning against complacency and advocating for readiness in every instance - both convenient and inconvenient. I will demonstrate this analogy using examples from modern life, like being called into a game off the bench.The sermon further expounds on how to proclaim the Word as delivered by Apostle Paul with emphasis on reproof, rebuke, exhortation, and teaching. I will reaffirm how these actions need to be carried out with wisdom and in-depth understanding of the Scriptures. The necessity to handle interactions with patience and respect, by seeing individuals as people to love instead of projects to work on. Moreover, I will explore the motivation for spreading the Word, which should be centered entirely on Jesus Christ. An assertion is made that by recognizing Jesus as the essence of everything we do, the courage and trust to carry forward God's work can be achieved.The sermon draws parallels between Paul's final words and the Ephesus church's tales as described in the book of Revelation, encouraging believers to remain steadfast in their love for Jesus Christ. The sermon, adorned with relevant and touching anecdotes, conveys its main points effectively. It cites the example of Brazilian skateboarder Rayssa Leal, who quoted scriptures through sign language during her Olympic run, and a story about a young boy confidently packing his bags for heaven, embodying hope in God's promises. Concluding with a tale about Billy Graham, who despite his Parkinson's disease, reassured that his life's purpose and direction were well known, the sermon emphasizes the surety one can have in life with God.In summary, the sermon sends out a powerful message to believers to disseminate God's Word with wisdom while keeping Jesus Christ as the focal point, inculcating hope and love within themselves as well as others around them. We can boldly proclaim; I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith.Grace and Peace,Stephen

Kathrine Switzer has always loved a challenge. In 1967, she decided to run the Boston Marathon, which was all men at the time. Though the race manager tried to pull her off the course, Kathrine pushed on and finished the race. Her accomplishment challenged the world's view of female athletes. Today, she's a marathon runner and women's sports advocate.

I contend it's easier to start the race than to finish.It's easier to get a first down than a touchdown.It's easier to get to first base than score a run. And it's easier to get someone to start the Christian life than to finish it.But just like in these sports examples, if you want to be a winner in the Christian life, finishing is what counts.Join us for today's Daily Word & Prayer to learn moreScripture Used in Today's Message2 Timothy 4:7Proverbs 3:1-2Have you read my book, "Takin' it to Their Turf"?If not, you may request a copy on my website, www.TomthePreacher.comWe send a copy to anyone who donates to our ministry, but if you can't do so, simply request a copy by sending us an email.

Hebrews 12:1-3
Hebrews 12:1-3
Systemic racism refers to systems in place that create and maintain racial inequality. Surprisingly, our public education system is one of those systems. Evolution is a cruel and hopeless religion, but there is something even deeper and more sinister at play in our public schools and colleges that is never talked about. Dr. Jonny exhorts parents and students to stand up to our science teachers and professors and expose the systemic and insidious racism in their teaching.

NOTES: One day Samson went to the Philistine town of Gaza and spent the night with a prostitute. Judges 16:1 (NLT) Based on who you want to become, what's one habit you need to STOP? Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles. And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us… Hebrews 12:1 (NIV) GOOD HABITS: The pain is NOW; the payoff is LATER. BAD HABITS: The payoff is NOW; the pain is LATER. HOW DO YOU BREAK A BAD HABIT?https://vimeo.com/905227561?share=copy IDENTIFY THE CUE FIVE MOST COMMON CUES: PLACES TIMES MOODS MOMENTS PEOPLE INTERRUPT THE RESPONSE Don't do as the wicked do, and don't follow the path of evildoers. Don't even think about it; don't go that way. Turn away and keep moving. Proverbs 4:14–15 (NLT) Run from anything that stimulates youthful lusts. 2 Timothy 2:22 (NLT) BOTTOM LINE: The habits you have TODAY will shape who you become TOMORROW. THE CHALLENGE: Based on who you want to BECOME, what's one habit you need to STOP?

On This Week at Charlestown Road, Jason and Roger revisit Sunday morning's sermon, “FINISH What Was Started” Through the Pen of Paul: 2 Timothy 1, digging deeper into the ways Paul's second letter to Timothy can help us run our own races of life to the glory of God.
Finishing the Race2 Timothy 4:7,8Liberty Church BirminghamSunday, October 8, 2023Appreciation for Liberty Church – John Snow, David and Betty McCutchen and Ferrell Maughan were my first supporters, and continued after I married Jan. Bill Stamp, Bruce, Jeff Cato, and Ferrell visited us. Many wrote encouragement. Bill introduced us to Globe International in 85 and Liberty Fellowship the next year at Norman Park. Thank you, Bruce, for helping me finish this book. He suggested we launch it here today. And will be in the back room to sign copies for those who wish to make a donation for one to reach an Unreached people group in northern Mozambique. Providing local evangelists, trained by our German missionaries, motors cycles and bicycles to reach distant villages where you follow goat paths and cross torrent rivers in a canoe. – this book includes several events from here including one of Jerry Strong. How a German youth help a WWII vet get deliverance.Finishing the race – a scripture for finishing well, spiritual warfare, and funerals. What if it applies to God and is prophetic in a way that OT scriptures are? What if Paul writes it as pertaining to himself, but God inspires it because it also applies to Jesus and his work, specifically his work by the Holy Spirit in us? It could apply to his work on the cross, as well as his work through the church until the great and glorious day when he appears, and we all enter heaven. But that is a very western mindset to this problem. Always a focus on the winner! When you think of races like the Marathon, you don't know many if any of the participants. Eliud Kipchoge from Kenya holds the world record and 2 Gold medals in the Olympic Marathon will try for a 3rd in Paris next year. That seems to be focus of our society as we hold such accomplishments in high esteem. Selfish Ambition can easily become a downfall for anyone. But two races impress me and give me a new sense of understanding regarding Gods plans and intentions: the Iditarod race is a grueling difficult race in March in Alaska, and it is not over until the last team arrives at the finish line. The concern is for all to reach the goal! The Dream Marathon is unique in the fact that the established runners train the new runners personally 22 weeks before the race and when the first ones reach the finish line they return to the last ones and run with them encouraging them to finish as well! Here the whole idea is that the whole group is involved in the whole group! Look at this from God's perspective it is not over until all ethnic people groups, language groups, cultures, races, are represented at the marriage feast of the lamb! Until All who call upon the name of the Lord are saved, it is not over! Until all have heard and have had a chance to respond, the race is not over! It will not be accomplished without more dedicated career missionaries that is for sure! Pray to the Lord of the harvest that he will cast out more into the white, ready and prepared harvest fields! But we need more than those who will sacrifice to go, we need those who will commit to do the praying, encouraging, communicating, visiting, pastoring those who have gone! We need an army who see that church is not where we go to be entertained, but where we learn how to serve, how to invest in people, how to give what is needed in the Kingdom of God. It is not about a few doing the most, it is about us all moving together as the Holy Spirit directs us. Not listening to the myriad of voices but following the one! The task of reaching the Lost is our task together. Wherever they are found.
